International audienceA young bubble is a piece of bare spherical liquid shell of radius R, with uniform thickness h, formed from an air volume rising underneath a water pool. It bursts by nucleating a hole, opening at the constant tangential velocity V = sqrt( 2 sigma / rho h) balancing inertia with surface tension forces, and collecting liquid in its rim...
